Hintz (lower-body) is on the ice for warmups and is expected to play Sunday.

Hintz has had a very difficult time staying healthy this season. He continues to battle a lingering lower-body injury but could play Tuesday after participating in the gameday skate. Hintz has been productive when he's in the lineup, scoring five goals with seven assists (12 points) in 14 games.
Duchene left Thursday's game prematurely and the Predators announced that he'll miss at least three weeks with a lower-body injury. With Duchene out, Ryan Johansen will move into the Predators' top-6 on Saturday.
